In China back
in the Minh Dynasty there were as we today call the Special Forces that
would guard the Emperor and the palace, these individuals would have to
be the most skillful, most fearless guards and their job had no limitations
as the protectors. They would have to be swift like the wind, strong like
a hurricane and quiet as a butterfly. The citizens made a myth of a fire
breathing black dragon that would destroy villages and opposing forces
with its mighty strength. The word Hei means black and darkness and the
word Long means dragon and strength, in translation Hei-Long: The Black
Dragons.

After the Minh
Dynasty was over, all of the superior guards to the palace separated and
went on to live their lives throughout Asia. Many of them with their religious
beliefs became monks and opened their own Temples of Buddhism. Many created
their own style of training and taught only those who were worthy enough
to carry the Black Dragons name. The style was past on from generation
to generation and finally fell in the United States in mid 1900´s
with Grand Master YB Wong. Grand Master Wong taught many Americans and
at the end, the style landed in the hands of the great martial artist
Grand Master GJ Torres.

There are many
detailed stories in the new creation of the Black Dragons, but to really
understand the complete style of the Black Dragons, you must complete
the training of one!
